Application Techniques Bond strength is dependent upon the amount of adhesive-to-surface contact developed.Firm application pressure helps develop better adhesive contact and improves bondstrength.

To obtain optimum adhesion, the bonding surfaces must be clean, dry and wellunified. Some typical surface cleaning solvents are isopropyl alcohol or heptane.*

Ideal tape application temperature range is 70°F to 100°F (21°C to 38°C). Initial tapeapplication to surfaces at temperatures below 50°F (10°C) is not recommendedbecause the adhesive becomes too firm to adhere readily. However, once properlyapplied, low temperature holding is generally satisfactory.

*Carefully read and follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for usewhen working with solvents.

Features • 3M™ Adhesive 350 is a firm acrylic adhesive that provides very high adhesion toa wide variety of materials, excellent shear holding power, high temperatureresistance and excellent UV resistance.

• 3M adhesive 350 provides exceptional temperature and chemical resistance andwithstands tough application environment.

• 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9500PC has a moisture resistant liner which canwithstand high humidity conditions with minimal cockling or wrinkling.

• These tapes have a film carrier, which can add dimensional stability to substrates.The carrier also provides easier handling during slitting and die-cutting.

• 3M™ Double Coated Tape 3028EK has an extensible kraft liner which facilitatesnarrow slitting.

• 3M™ Double Coated Tape 9593 clear polyester carrier provides dimensionalstability and improved handling with ease of die cutting and lamination comparedto adhesive transfer tapes.

Application Ideas • Dissimilar materials joining, such as metal to plastic.

• High performance joining and bonding.

• 3M tape 3028EK for applications which use narrow slit, level wound roll.
